The manga Oshi no Ko wrapped its serialization in November 2024, but the first exhibition dedicated to Aka Akasaka and Mengo Yokoyari’s showbiz drama is still running at Matsuya Ginza. It enters its final week on Monday. Meanwhile, early August brings two collab cafe updates worth planning around.
1. マンガ【推しの子】展 -星のキセキ- (Oshi no Ko Exhibition: Star’s Miracle)
Dates: July 22 (Wed) to August 11 (Tue, national holiday), 2026 Venue: Matsuya Ginza 8F Event Square (松屋銀座8階イベントスクエア), Ginza Station A12 exit direct Price: General 2,000 yen / High school 1,300 yen / Elementary and middle school 800 yen / Goods set 4,000 yen (limited)
The exhibition walks through the manga’s iconic scenes and story beats through illustration displays, with comments from both Aka Akasaka and Mengo Yokoyari giving the behind-the-scenes angle. It is the first exhibition of its kind for a series that passed 25 million copies in print worldwide 公式サイト.
Hours are 11:00 to 20:00 with last entry 30 minutes before closing, and the final day (August 11, a national holiday) closes early at 17:00. Tickets are partially timed-entry, so grab them via Lawson Ticket (L-code 34902) in advance; same-day tickets are planned at the venue while supplies last. Every visitor gets a random VIP-pass-style sticker from the six designs 松屋銀座.
Ginza Station’s A12 exit connects directly to the store, so you stay dry even in August rain. After Tokyo, the exhibition tours to Daimaru Kobe from September 16 公式サイト.
2. TVアニメ『正反対な君と僕』コラボカフェ (Polar Opposites Collab Cafe)
Dates: August 4 (Tue) to September 13 (Sun), 2026 Venue: motto cafe Ikebukuro (東池袋1-3-2, Maejima Building) Hours: 11:20 to 20:00
The anime adaptation of Seihantai na Kimi to Boku (You and I Are Polar Opposites), the Jump+ rom-com about an endlessly cheerful girl and a quiet boy who respect each other’s differences, gets its first collab cafe starting August 4. The cafe runs themed food, drinks, and newly drawn collaboration goods PR TIMES.
Reservation details were scheduled to be announced on the dedicated page from July 21 onward, so check seihantai.motto-cafe.com before you go. Osaka gets the same cafe later, from November 6.
3. あんさんぶるスターズ!! CastLive Starry Symphony -Superbloom- × アニメイトカフェ (Ensemble Stars × Animate Cafe)
Dates: July 31 (Fri) to September 6 (Sun), 2026 Venue: Animate Cafe Ikebukuro, Nagoya, and Tennoji (3 stores) Hours: 10:30 to 21:10, 90-minute sessions (closed August 19 for menu changeover)
The Ensemble Stars!! Cast Live “Starry Symphony -Superbloom-” collab at Animate Cafe runs across three cities with mini-character illustrations drawn fresh for the event. Every day is lottery-reservation only, with web reception open since June 29 (deadlines vary by usage period), so book through the reservation page early nijimen アニメイトカフェ.
One note for Ginza regulars: the Fullmetal Alchemist × Yomi no Tsugai exhibition we covered earlier takes over the same 8F floor on August 13, so you can plan both visits in one trip.
